Fritelle

Fritelle are traditional Italian pastries, often enjoyed during festivals or special occasions. They are deep-fried treats made from a dough that can include ingredients like flour, sugar, eggs, and sometimes fruit or alcohol for flavor. Once cooked, they become golden and crispy on the outside, with a soft interior. Variations can include fillings such as pastry cream or fruit jam. Fritelle are typically dusted with powdered sugar before serving, offering a delightful contrast between crunchy exterior and tender inside, and are cherished for their comforting, sweet taste.
